Should you exhibit at SWITCH 2026?
Exhibiting can be the largest marketing investment, yet many exhibit because of competitors/attractive offers, instead of having a strong business case. We at LiveLife guide you to make the right decision on when, where & how much to exhibit.

About the Show
About SWITCH
SWITCH, the Singapore Week of Innovation and Technology, is a three-day innovation and technology festival organised by Enterprise Singapore and supported by the National Research Foundation Singapore (NRF) of the Prime Minister’s Office. The 2026 edition runs 27–29 October at Marina Bay Sands with four curated conference stages (Main Stage, Beyond, Global and Converge), a Trade & Exhibition Floor of 300+ exhibitors from Singapore and beyond, and the 10th edition of SLINGSHOT, Asia’s deep tech startup pitching competition, with the Top 50 startups pitching across five deep tech domains. A SWITCH attendee pass is free to register.
The 2025 edition (29–31 October) recorded over 25,000 attendees and 400 exhibitors from more than 100 countries, the most in the show’s history. SLINGSHOT 2025 drew nearly 7,000 applicants from over 150 markets, and lab crawls across the city involved over 20 corporates, research institutions and institutes of higher learning. The 2026 Event Guide lists 300+ exhibitors, so the floor is smaller than in 2025 on the organiser’s own numbers.
Our job is to help guide you make the right decision on exhibiting. So you know at which show to exhibit based on target audience, and how much to invest for optimal ROI.

Honest Filter
Who Should Exhibit Here
SWITCH is a government-organised innovation festival built around deep tech and startups, not a classic buyer–seller trade show. It suits companies seeking partnerships, pilots, funding or market access — these are the segments it programmes for.

Beyond the Floor
Special Programs & Activities
What you can take part in to meet and engage your target audience more effectively.
Main Stage & SLINGSHOT 2026
Keynotes and panels from global tech leaders, plus the SLINGSHOT deep tech pitching competition: the Top 50 startups pitch across five domains through to the Grand Finals. SLINGSHOT 2025 drew nearly 7,000 applicants from 150+ markets.
A pitching slot is visibility beyond your booth — we help you judge whether the SLINGSHOT application effort is worth it for your goals.
Beyond Stage
Sector-focused conferences and workshops on Healthcare & Biomedical, Embodied AI & Robotics, Semiconductor and Quantum (ticketed), and Climate Tech (free-access conference, invite-only workshops).
We help you map which track matches your product, so you spend your time with the audience that can actually buy or partner.
Global Stage & Global Pavilions
Market access sessions covering SEA, APAC, Asia, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas, plus startup sessions, with overseas partners met at their global pavilions on the floor.
We help you shortlist the delegations worth meeting before you arrive, rather than walking the pavilions cold.
Converge Stage
Founder-focused sessions on Capabilities, Capital and Talent: practical insight on building, funding and scaling startups, with the T-up awards closing Day 3.
We help you decide whether the founder and investor audience here matches who you want to reach.
Business Matching & Networking Lounge
A business matching app, structured networking sessions in the Networking Lounge (Hall C, Level 1) and an Investor Lounge on the floor, with partner events running on Level 3.
We help you work the room with a plan, so casual conversations still turn into follow-ups.
Innovation Lab Crawl & Champions of AI
The Lab Crawl goes behind the scenes at deep-tech labs, research centres and corporate R&D hubs across four tracks, and the Champions of AI pavilion showcases Singapore companies applying AI enterprise-wide.
We help you judge which of these side programmes justify their cost and time for your goals.
